No 8 - Marston´s Old Empire India Pale Ale

A somewhat peculiar nose with notes of burnt fudge, old lemon and some detergent. Somewhat foursquare and with a bitter note. There is some good yellow fruit in there but the peculiar notes dominate.

The taste is dry and fresh but has the same bitter note as in the nose. Some notes of fudge, and sweet malt, but in the end, rather short and dull.
